Better Than Drowning

One look at the path that I have walked up to now I feel immensely cowardly And driven to dive headfirst in the sea While underwater floating palaces sink They're too ashamed not to think that they Could've been built much differently Take a step inside of these once regal abodes We'll sit you right on the throne, so that You can pretend that you'll never be alone Call out to servants that left long ago To people you'll never know Call out to end the ride, yes end the show Lock every door that leads to the reef We're going to sleep in the murky deep Wash off your clothes and wipe off the sweat You'll never be cleansed if you keep yourself wet One look at the path that I have walked up to now I feel immensely cowardly And driven to dive headfirst in the sea I'm underwater now with no time to think Not even a palace to see At the Loser's Homemade Love Retreat We're giving up on what we thought was Important: the meaning of life; to find Companionship to end the strife
